No plan is a plan.

The CPC under Poilievre is choosing to deny climate change. The subsequent disasters and disruptions will be addressed on an ad hoc basis while legacy industries continues to make money.

It's a shitty plan, but it's a choice they are making.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago

Denial is their plan. "We didn't have climate change in the 50s and remember how great that was?"

Canada can either be a beacon for science, education, responsible government and freedom, or it can descend into fascist oppression like the USA. Vote, and keep this man away from power.

Poilievre has no ~~climate~~ plan

FTFY

I mean, he absolutely has a plan. It's just that the plan is to reduce corporate taxes, remove any safety nets and de-regulate as much as possible.

All things that are bad for the average citizen, but also still a plan.

Dont be bashful. Its the same as every Rube down south. Let the corporations do whatever the fuck they want, especially at the expense of the citizenry. Axe your far-right, Canada. Do it by dumping boatloads into education. Dont be like us, dont give the corporations an inch or you'll wind up right where we are.

Education is a provincial responsibility which is in trouble under the Ontario and Alberta conservative premiers. Doug Ford was a highschool hash dealer, didn't go to university, inherited his dad's company, then became a conservative politician. So it's unsurprising that he sees no value in education.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thats one way to get to spluttering similar to ours. Education should be unified across the nation.

[–] Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And yet, I'm seeing waaaaaayyyy too many Conservative election signs in front of people's homes.

Not totally surprised, since they also think that Doug Ford is doing an amazing job, so why not have a planless federal party in charge, too? 🫠

Hey now. Dougie ranted and gesticulated in front of a camera. Does that not count for anything?!?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I highly doubt that's true. He seems committed to increasing global temperatures

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

He sure blows a lot of hot air.

[–] Mossheart@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year ago

Should our broken-ass electoral system elect this idiot, we will discover that their 'plan' for the country was really just three slogans in a trenchcoat this whole time.

Out of all the moldy wet socks the Conservative Party had run in the last decade, this guy is the worst. I can’t stand him and his shitty attitude

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Such a punchable face too.

[–] HamsterRage@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This just in: Water is wet!!!!

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ikr? Shills shilling?

[–] Bublboi@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

But it could have been wetter if not for the lost liberal decade. New slogan: Wet the Water. wetter is better.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

He doesn't believe in it.

[–] juicebox@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He’s all LASIK, no vision.

[–] k_rol@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Well my vision has been 20/20 since LASIK, I don't think I get your point.

[–] veeesix@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Given his affinity for slogans I wouldn’t be surprised if “Climate, shlimate” was already at the print shop.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Common sense plan to axe the climate!

[–] Alloi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

well he is a POS loser, and a dip shit moron. among other well earned accolades.

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Woof, I thought that was Canadian Elon musk.

Which is just Elon musk.

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Because he's an idiot, and a stooge
